Hah, I searched and found that same video. I'm a little skeptical of how that is going to help, though - the problem seems to be that the element itself, being laminated in some thin plastic, is rather slippery, as is the throttle tube. Not enough friction!

I'll give it a shot, though - and maybe rough up the throttle tube with some sandpaper while I'm at it. My grips don't have those convenient slots, but I have been considering buying some new grips... might be time for that, too.

Today, after 3 years, I think I finished modifying my KTM. I added crash bars and a skid plate. I also changed the oil. Every time I work on that bike I'm reminded why the KTM engineers included a bottle opener in their tool bag. When you're done with even the most basic maintenance you need a drink. I love KTM, but they don't make it easy.

For me, I tore into the carbs on my gsxr to find out why it only ran on 2 cylinders. The problem ended up being clogged pilot jets. I cleaned them up with a wire (which was crazy thin by the way) and now it's running on all fours. I foresee this bike getting in the road soon.

Assuming I can drunkenly navigate photobucket, yes. You'll have to forgive the poor lighting for most of them. The bumper sticker photo is from a month or two back, but the rest were taken today in the pouring down rain under my race paddock EZ up, giving them an odd look. I'll also throw in some others for funsies.

As proof that I use it the way it's designed: here she is at the top of Cleman Mountain on the WA BDR two years ago:

Still not really sure where build threads go. Especially for scooters lol. But here I went and decided to shorten my lowered 150. Here it is mocked up with a engine mount I bought. It was too wide and the dimensions were off on it. So I had a welding shop do their thing. Last picture is it now. The placement of the rear wheel is about an inch too far to the right. But a skinnier tire might fix it. Good news is it is straighter then what it was stock.
